This is NOT a specific answer, but more of a request to understand your environment.

System run state: Are you running LIveDVD or Frugal or Full install?

Monitor: Once you make the changes you indicate, are you running from the laptop's monitor or the additional monitor you attach to get the desktop as you want it permanently?

Filesystem: Upon reboot, is your filesystem changes saved in either location that existed before shutdown (for example are changes lost in PuppyPin file or the PuppyPinLHP file or both?

Question for Development
Would a remaster at the time of these kinds of changes automatically save these changes by selecting all and ONLY "default" answers OR is some manual intervention required to save these system state changes? (Seems that in the past, I have had some of state changes lost unless I specifically knew what and where state changes were made and made manual adjustments during the remaster in order to re-create the existing (and running) system.)

An old idea
I have asked this several years ago and @Jamesbond responded with some additions in save sessions and remaster which are very clever. But, I still have wondered if there is a tool in Puppyland, which will create an ISO from your presently running system without the user ever needing to answer questions excepting those to indicate where the target ISO is to be created. This negates any element from things missing or left out in a "Presently Running System State" of a genuine remaster to ISO. Maybe this being an option on present Puppyland Remaster utility might address this if seen as a useful means. This would make clear what the outcome would be versus the current discovery process which exist in the present tool where user review is a requirement. This requirement does not address any learning process, rather, has been a source of confusion when the outcome does NOT match what was running.

Not asking for re-write but rather an understanding of whether this is reasonable?_________________Get ACTIVE Create Circles; Do those good things which benefit people's needs!

3 Different Puppy Search Enginesor use DogPile

Firstly I have Precise running quite nicely on my newish HP Pavilion 4108au laptop, which is plagued with a Broadcom 4313GN wireless card. I thought to give the 64bit pups a run, but both Fatdog and the beta Lighthouse don't like playing with the Broadcom wireless.

I have got Fatdog to play after some pampering, but Lighthouse just picks it up and drops it straight away. I've followed the instructions in the FAQ and they seem to work - ie it picks up an ip but only holds it for a couple of seconds before disconnecting, that's what the on screen message says anyway.

I made a new post about this some time ago, asking how to compile the source for the Broadcom driver - however it was too hard so I abandoned that project.

I have now retried the latest Fatdog and Lighthouse (yesterday and today) with the same results - I can configure Fatdog to pick up the Broadcom by starting the wl service, but Lighthouse continually drops the connection when I try the same thing.

Any suggestions about how to get a stable wifi connection with Lighthouse?

I'm running Lighthouse live from USB, with the save file in a NTFS partition on the HDD.

Previously using Lighthouse 514 and the mic worked out of the box. Now using 602, and I can't seem to get the thing working.

It's primarily for my Kiddo's school site. There's a little flash gig to record his answers in French so that the teacher can hear his pronunciation.

I've tried playing with the AlsaMixer, m and space to try to activate mic, capture is active, boost is up... in other words, I don't think it's the mixer. Flash settings are also correct, set to allow for the school site in all places.

It's almost like there's something missing in 602 that was in 514... like a lib or a driver.

Can anyone offer a little direction? I can still boot 514 for the time being, but I do want to get 602 mic working. I'm not quite sure how to proceed or what to look for.

Thank you for your work on LHP 602 and also to everyone helping improve it.
I used LHP 514 and also follow Fatdog releases.

I installed the ATI-13.4-3.8.7..pet from the Updates and I had no luck with my HD 7870 XT and I was expecting it since ati-13.4-3.8.7 pet didn't work for me in Fatdog 620 either ...
In the early days of FD620 , kirk was kind and compiled a 13.3b3-3.8.7 pet which worked . I kept it and -- since there are pets that work from fatdog in LHP ( I successfully installed FBReader) -- I tried to install it in LHP 602 . It did the job , even I think it did not install properly . I had always attached the Devx.sfs at first .
At that point I did a remaster and hoped to keep the working driver in the new remastered LHP. Usually it's the way I do a custom version , I don't like save files... One could lose or corrupt it...
The remastered LHP did not keep the video driver changes and I thought it could be because the pet was meant for fatdog... ( looking inside both pets I saw the structure was different ...)
Today I installed the downloaded driver from AMD site ati-catalyst-13.11-beta6-linux-x86.x86_64 and looking at the log file I executed also /lib/modules/fglrx/make_install.sh then aticonfig --initial , restarted X and there it was , the driver was working . I finally loaded Compiz sfs.
I was glad but again , doing a remastered ISO I couldn't have my custom version with the ati driver in it . Maybe it is because of the way LHP is doing the remaster or maybe it is because the driver must be implemented in a particular way and it must be done a proper pet , I don't know ...

If you have some time , could you compile one of those beta drivers in a pet for LHP 602 , please
I am not able to do it

Why would a PDF display properly in epdfview but not LibreOffice, please?

I'm using Version 4.0 & see that 4.1 is available but not sure of the best way to update in LH64-602b.

Is there a fix?

I need to delete an extra page in the PDF doc and need the editing features of LibreOffice._________________Thanks! DavidHome page: http://nevils-station.comDon't googleSearch!http://duckduckgo.com
TahrPup64 & Lighthouse64-b602 & JL64-603

Installed the driver from AMD and after that I put it on a pendrive making a savefile and so I could keep Lighthouse the proper way .
The pen drive has a mechanic/hardware lock , I put noautosave on the kernel line , so now behaves like a CD.
From it I could make a frugal install to a partition of my PC so I'm happy...
It's a pleasure using Lighthouse Thank's a lot

I added another gigabyte of storage (I had an old machine I was taking to recycle and the memory fit) - and the Chrome 100% usage problem went away ... so Firefox seems to manage storage better than Chrome (I still prefer Chrome but I'll use FF if there's no Chrome on offer).

I have been using C-F (Fusion WM) with this release and all the C-F effects work fine. No real problems except that gkrellm does not seem to play nicely with it.

No problems if I change to Openbox as the window manager - but change back to "Fusion WM" from the "Change WM" dialog and there's a small bug:
Gkrellm display can't be moved and clicking on the webcam picture doesn't work, and right click fails to bring up the config. The display still shows CPU usage, and temps etc. but there's no interaction with it.

I tried LXDE as the WM with the Compiz .sfs file and C_F works great and interaction with gkrellm works fine with that combination.
